This game brings a lot of new content, but also updates many classic tracks and features for the Wii console. Most of the new features seem focused on new characters/vehicles and enhanced playing modes. Even if you've played the predecessors, there is a lot of new content and enjoyment packaged in this game. And if you want to drive with a wheel, it has that as well!
